I love this!! I got this as a gift when I purchase clinique product. My friend used to recommend me this. And turns out I fall in love with this scrub!! It has the creamy texture, not too thick or thin. No scent. Not harsh. Doesn't feel dry out after use. Feel moisturized after use. XD I love this product! Will repurchase!!

I got this as a gift with purchase, with my eczema sensitive skin I don't really like to use facial scrubs. But this one is not bad at all, it contains no fragrance and it's not to harsh, it also did not irritate my skin either. It is very basic and I'm not sure if it's worth the price, especially the European prices that are way higher! But it is a decent scrub, the only downside is the price and that the product maybe is a little bit to boring for "us" beauty-junkies! ;)

I received a sample of this product as a gift with purchase and it went unused for several months as I had never used a facial scrub before. When I came across it again, I put it in my shower as a reminder to use it and have been in love with it ever since. I use 7 Day Scrub Cream each time I shower before using my foaming facial cleanser and I have found that my skin is softer and smoother since I started using it. I don't like many of Clinique's skin care products, but I love this one! It leaves my face feeling fresh and clean when I get out of the shower. Highly recommend!

i was dealing with a bad itchy allergy related breakout in the begging of the week. I found a sample bottle of this laying around the house. my aunt gave me a sample. she gets tons of samples with her purchases. i started using this, along with the noxema blemish control pads (i've used since i was a teen) & my skin cleared up. this also made my skin a lot smoother. i like this a lot. the sample size is large & will last a long time. thanks clinique. i also noticed that my t zone isn't as oily now since using this. love this stuff. btw this is my first time using a scrub.

my only gripe is that this is pricy. $19.50. i usually use cheap drugstore skincare products. however, clinique is worth it

My skin is dry and sensitive, so finding exfoliating products is difficult. This scrub cream works on my my skin, but just barely. I massaged it in with a light touch and only on areas that weren't really sensitive. I removed gently with a damp warm washcloth. I used it once or twice a week.

I love this exfoliating scrub. I have tried a lot of different products and like the texture of this one. It is not too abrasive and works gently. This product is great for sensitive skin and combination skin, both of which I have. I recommend it highly. It costs more than some drugstore brands but works quite well.

Not suitable for my sensitive skin. Caused a breakout after 2 uses. Skin feels clean after using. Stopped using since the breakout.

I don't remember how much this is but i do know that i bought it on the recommendation of a friend.

Sephora describes this scrub cream as:
This exfoliating scrub gently brushes away roughness and flakiness.

Well i put it to the test when i had super dry flaky skin on my cheeks, i used this scrub cream everyday and after i scrubbed. My cheeks were still rough from the flakes so it definitely didn't work for me.

Also it didn't feel very well with all those rough beads, i felt it worked worse than the st ives' apricot scrub!

Absolutely this is not an everyday scrub for me. I tried to use three or four times a week on my wet skin, but end up with my skin gets irritated.

So I use this scrub once a week on my wet skin. I rub my skin with it in circular motion light-handedly. And the result is satisfying. My skin get smoother. It leaves clean and moist feeling. My skin gets more vibrant.

I bought a sample size of this product, and will definitely repurchase the full size.

Bleah what a disgusting product! My skin just doesn't like Clinique products. There is only one thing that my skin likes (pore refining serum , the old version) but in rest I find them bad for my skin. I tried lots of Clinique products and they all dissapointed me.
This scrub leaves my skin red, irritated, my pores look bigger and my face is shiny.
I used this product one time and it ended up in the bin. Honestly this is the only scrub that I used once and then just got rid of it, it was so bad!
Usually I give products a chance but this doesn't deserve any.

This is horrendous for sensitive skin.
Broke me out and highly irritating scraping little beads.
My skin hated it and was reactive and red for a while after using it for only a few times.

I got a Clinique voucher after having to return some of their other skin products that left my skin badly damaged. This is one of the things that I bought with the voucher, so to me it was essentially an experiment.

It sounded a bit like a harsh product, so I was actually surprised when it caused no damage. It did leave my skin feeling clean, if just a tad greasy. I would definitely use a cleanser afterwards. It has a strong unpleasant smell (is it petroleum?) although I don't really mind that. It's good for removing stubborn sunscreen or make-up. I would never use it everyday though. I just use it once a week, other times I alternate with a Clarisonic cleansing or DHL cleansing oil.

A word of caution... they specifically say you shouldn't use it on your lips. In fact, you should avoid exfoliating your lips altogether.

I received a giant TUB of this as a gift, and am sad to say that I did not love this product (nor like it very much). I can hardly stand to use it once a week, let alone seven days, as it says on the label! The granules are rough on my skin, and the creamy formula is so, so greasy.

I only put a dab on my forehead and cheeks, but I definitely have to wet my face first. Then, just trying to swipe it off with a cotton pad feels like my skin is being ripped off. So, I wash the granules off first, then take a cotton pad to remove the greasy stuff.

Result: skin is exfoliated leaving red spots in dry patches in cheeks, while other areas are shiny in a greasy sort of way.

For cleaning off make up, the greasiness does take off my Colorstay foundation, but Pond's Cold Cream is much more gentle, effective, and cheaper!

I love this stuff. I first tried a sample of it with an online order. It's not too harsh and leaves my skin very smooth. The first sample tube lasted me a long time, and I ended up getting another one after I bought a regular size tube. I use this every other day after their mild facial soap, and only need about 3-4 pea sized amounts for my entire face. Lasts a long time, which you should take into consideration when looking at the price.

I didn't feel like this scrub did a good job scrubbing or exfoliating the skin. The granules are too fine for this. This is more for everyday use to use like a cleanser.

I, personally, am really not a fan of this product. I have one tube that I have been grudgingly working my way through, mostly because of the cost being too hefty for me to simply just throw it away. First and foremost, I don't know if it is just my tube, but the smell is atrocious. I can't quite place my finger on it. At first I couldn't believe women would pay so much to put something that smelled like that on their faces. I have oily/combination skin, and can have mild acne but not too frequently. I am a fan of facial scrubs moreso than cream or gel cleansers, but this product did not exfoliate enough for my taste to be used alone, and didn't produce the "clean" feeling I was expecting after washing my face. I use a salicylic acid scrub in the mornings now, and occasionally use this to cleanse my face at night. Because of the other scrubs I use, this method makes me more thankful that this product is relatively gentle. My face also seems much less oily with this regimen, which is why I can't say I HATE the product. But in my opinion, if you don't have painfully sensitive skin and want a quality scrub I believe you can find much better products for the money you're spending.

I use this everyday to take off all the crap on my face.. I hate working with oils all day and this really helps to give my skin that extra cleanse.. in a gentle nudge way :p.. I love it. it's not too harsh I prefer this to a harsher scrub.

A perfect gentle scrub I use once or twice a week. Cannot say anything against it.
Together with the Clinique 3-Step-System it makes my skin shine and feel super soft and just right. Since I have been using this combination of products my makeup stays put all day and the skin looks great. I buy it again and again since some years already and is the only scrub I do happily repurchase.

I was told I could use this scrub every day on a dry face. I couldn't, but it was the first scrub I could use two to three times a week on a damp/wet face. It didn't make me feel like my face was being sand blasted but worked well in getting off my dry flaking skin. It didn't brake me out, didn't aggravate my eczema or rosacea.

I'm on my 2nd tube and I love this product. I use it every other day and sometimes once a day. It depends on my mood. Since it has fine grains, I use a very light hand. I had no negative reaction when I've used it daily. I use it at night to make sure that every trace of my day makeup is off. I LOVE my makeup but I LOVE a clean face more at night.

I love the way face feels afterwards. It just feesl soft and smooth and clean! I think you all know what you can and can't tolerate. You have to use common sense as the last poster mentioned. So, like everything else, it's try and error. Luckily, Clinique will give out samples. I say get yourself a sample and see how well your face take it. Just use a light hand.
